Be A Part!

Thank you for taking time to pray for the men & women of
America who are serving their country in the US Armed Services, especially
during this crucial time after the removal of the regime of Saddam Hussein. Our Servicemen and Servicewomen who are
defending freedom need our prayers and our support. Two Community Prayer Meetings were
held, and God heard and answered our prayers for these brave servants. For info on
the success and results of the prayer rallies, see below. If you have a
family member, friend, or acquaintance who serves in any branch (active duty or
reserve) of the Armed
Services of the United States, please use the
online form to add their name to
the Prayer List, so that they
will be protected by a crucial prayer covering. Please pray for the names already on the
list (to view the list, click here).
Thank you!

Community Prayer Meetings

Two community
prayer meetings were held. They were very successful. Thank you for joining with many others across the Clarksburg-Bridgeport
area in praying for our Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen, and Guards. Many area
pastors & churches came together to pray. City officials were on hand to
represent their cities.

At the first prayer rally, which took place
Saturday, April 12, 2003, at the Harrison County Courthouse, downtown
Clarksburg, WV, the final speaker was the late Pastor David Kates, a former mayor of
Clarksburg, and a former city councilman. During this rally, prayer was made
for the successful locating of, and release of, POWs held hostage by Iraqi
forces. The very next day, all seven of the remaining POWs were recovered
alive.

At the second prayer rally, which took place
Saturday, April 19, 2003, at Meadowbrook Mall in Bridgeport, WV, the final
speaker was the Honorable Margaret Bailey, serving on Clarksburg's City Council. During this rally, prayer was made for the successful locating
of MIAs. Soon afterwards, the bodies of the MIAs were recovered. They were
killed prior to the prayer, but it was an answer to prayer that their bodies
were recovered.
